The Golden Thread
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
The Golden Thread introduces Claire Delaney, an ambitious, idealistic and highly rational young woman called to be a nun. In these eleven stories, readers hear the joy of praise, feel the itch of stockings and habit, taste the gall of obedience, and, finally, share the pain and delight when Claire renounces her vows and embraces the secular life.
Ann Copeland, a native of Connecticut, lived in Sackville, New Brunswick, for twenty-five years before moving to Salem, Oregon, in 1996. A popular fiction writing instructor at workshops in Canada, the US, and New Zealand, she is the author of The ABCs of Writing Fiction and six books of stories. The Golden Thread, linked stories about Sister Claire Delaney, was a finalist for a 1990 Governor General's Award; "Another Christmas," first published in the Fiddlehead, is part of Strange Bodies on a Stranger Shore, the sequel to The Golden Thread.
